    Eh- I was never mad at Manny. Perturbed at his behavior, but never mad. His bat for the Dodgers, on the other hand… that, I hate.

  7. 2008 October 1 at 9:48 pm

    Me too. Savor the moment – right now ANYTHING IS POSSIBLLLLLLLLLLE.

    Damn, I am so ready for this.

  9. 2008 October 1 at 9:51 pm

    Texy, I thought it was mostly that you’re pro-Cubbies.
    I, on the other hand, do not want to see Manny win. Yeah, I’m bitter.

    Why must you be so fetching, James Loney? You, too, Russell Martin.

  11. 2008 October 1 at 9:52 pm

    I also do not know how to close an html tag. I’ll try to keep things simple tonight.

  12. 2008 October 1 at 9:52 pm

    Sucks watching manuel hitting home runs for another team in the playoffs.

    And now the only game that matters starts.

    Oh, I’m way way WAY pro-Cubs (wearing my DeRosa shirt right now) — but I don’t hate Manny. Just his bat, when it’s not hitting bombs for my team.

    Yeah, Loney’s not bad looking at all, is he?

    I have no particular loyalties to either the Cubs or Dodgers, but I still love watching Manny do his thing so I’m *sort* of pulling for them, but not obsessively so.

  15. 2008 October 1 at 9:54 pm

    I am so ready for this game to start.

  16. 2008 October 1 at 9:54 pm

    Oh, and Happy New Year everyone.
    Damn, I still keep writing “5768″ on my checks.

  17. 2008 October 1 at 9:55 pm

    So you guys, due to the start time and the fact that I’m feeling under the weather, I’m actually going to watch the game entirely from bed. Basically, I’m just passing through to say hello and GO SOX and all that good stuff…although for the moment I’m eating my evening dish of ice cream.

  22. 2008 October 1 at 9:58 pm

    Manuel freaking golfed that shot 25 rows up.

    My dad was a cubs fan, so I was rooting for the cubs, but I do like Lowe, the only Dodger I like.

  26. 2008 October 1 at 10:01 pm

    you mean you don’t like nomah

    I have so missed the Sox.

    I don’t really remember nomar, but have nothing against him. I usually watch the dodgers for Lowe.

    Me too, Karen — I’ve been going through withdrawal.

    Easy there, Snowflake – don’t strain anything.

  31. 2008 October 1 at 10:02 pm

    way too much purple there buck

  32. 2008 October 1 at 10:04 pm

    Nomah, OCD poster boy. Of course I say that with love – I hated to see him go.

    Hey guys! I am freaking out about this game – so so nervous. And I have a ton of work to do, so I probably won’t be posting much.

    Though, I do have one thing to say: BEAT LA!

    I was telling my friend, who is not a sox fan, doesn’t watch baseball and lives in ma, so wrong, she thinks i’m insane.
    I root for Lowe, cause he’s a friend of a friend, and a former Sox.

    DLowe is the one who divorced his wife to marry the slutty TV anchor, right? I think she got fired over that. As she should.
